Sharing Beatrice A Luna To Her Stepbrothers by Alexis Dee

70-Not So Innocent!

I have been in my room thinking about what happened between Helel and me last night. Now that it was slowly start- ing to sink in, I was beginning to understand what I lost last night. It wasn’t a problem for me, but my mother would be very angry when she found out about it.

However, it is not like I am ever going to tell her anything. She would never find out. Now that I have tasted freedom, the idea of answering someone’s burning questions doesn’t seem too desirable to me. I wanted to live freely now. It is not like I didn’t want to ever see my mother, but I wanted her to not control me too much.

“What happens if I don’t take the pills for too long?” I asked myself that question, holding the pill bottle in my hand and staring at it. I was resting in the bed, my arms stretched out and the bottle in the air.

“Would it be okay to let my wolf transition once?” I tried to convince myself to transition, but then I remembered how wrong it could go if he tracked my scent.

“No! I must not make that mistake,” I said to myself and sat up in bed. Without wasting another minute, I took the pill and calmed down.

Now that I have decided to not mess up my routine, I planned to meet Helel and see what he was up to. It really shocked me when I walked out of the room and found the mansion empty. I don’t know how long I have been in my room, but it certainly hasn’t been years.

“Now where the heck is everyone?” I sighed. Taking a quick peek inside the kitchen and finding no one there didn’t help my anxiety. I kept wandering around until my eyes trav-eled to the hallway and the light emitting from the room at the end.
